Pop singer Beyonce Instagram’d this image of her daughter, Blue Ivy, admiring their Christmas tree. Blue Ivy’s silhouette is framed by the massive tree which is festooned with oversized ornaments included elephants, the symbol of the Republican party. Many families wait until after Thanksgiving to put up their Christmas holiday decorations, but apparently not the Knowles-Carters.

Rappers Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, left, and Clifford “T.I.” Harris, Jr. are blessed with riches beyond their wildest dreams. They never hesitate to give back to their communities — not only during the holidays, but year ’round.

Rap mogul Chris “Ludacris” Bridges and his Ludacris Foundation are always busiest around the holidays. Unlike other foundations that give back only during tax season (I SEE YOU, Jay Z), Luda and his mom, Roberta Shields, give back to the community year round.

LRG, which built their urban streetwear brand on the backs of rappers, features Gucci Mane in a Thanksgiving-themed Day in the Life photo shoot in Atlanta. Titled High End Low Lifes, the LRG style team dresses Gucci Mane in their best holiday threads as he hangs out at his opulent mansion with his skateboard crew and munches on 45 cheeseburgers. An accompanying video takes you behind the scenes of the photo shoot. See more pics here.
